Ποτέ πριν δεν είχαν βγει στη δημοσιότητα… Η «Daily Mail»
αποκαλύπτει εικόνες μέσα από τον Λευκό Οίκο που αφορούν στις πρώτες
αντιδράσεις της τότε κυβέρνησης των Ηνωμένων Πολιτειών Αμερικής μετά την
συγκλονιστική επίθεση στους Δίδυμους Πύργους (9/11).. Με τον Πρόεδρο
των ΗΠΑ, Τζορτζ Μπους Τζούνιορ και τον Αντιπρόεδρο, Ντιρκ Τσέινι (και
τους συνεργάτες τους) να μην δείχνουν, προκλητικά μάλιστα, να ανησυχούν
και ιδιαίτερα παρά το γεγονός πως εξελισσόταν ένα τέτοιο τρομακτικό
γεγονός!
